	Telemann Aria 1 Linked by Bullard 10 years ago: a studio take of a Telemann piece being recorded for my forthcoming classical banjo CD that will feature works by Telemann, Bach Handel, Grieg and Schumann. Jayme Stone is producing and shot the video
Tablature: Anach Cuain (Irish slow air) Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: This arrangement is based on the sean-nós version sung by the lovely Dolly MacMahon. It's in the key signature of G, but that's misleading because it's A Dorian or D Mixolydian on the uilleann pipes.
Tablature: Rickett's Hornpipe Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: This is for Bill Keith (RIP), my hero, friend and mentor. Here is a legato arrangement in Celtic Fingerstyle (G tuning, no capo).
	20 O'Carolan Irish Classics for 5-String Banjo and All Instruments Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: Each tune is played twice through on the recording, which is an optional download that matches the transcriptions note for note and chord for chord. I recommend getting the recording as well.
Blog Entry: How does one know when to retire? Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: About learning.
	Music for a Found Harmonium Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: This quirky tune from the Penquin Cafe Orchestra has found its way into mainstream Irish and Celtic music as a reel. I've put it back to its original keys, and it can be capoed up two or four frets.
Photo: (untitled) Linked by Tom Hanway 11 years ago: This much-celebrated-ethnic-folky tune from the Penquin Cafe Orchestra has found its way into mainstream Irish and Celtic music as a reel.
	Gavotte en Rondeau, Partita No 3, J.S. Bach Linked by Bullard 12 years ago: new video of the Bach Gavotte from Partita No 3
	Rustic Dance by CR Howell Linked by gdoc 13 years ago
	Beethoven - Fifth Symphony Linked by Bluesage 15 years ago: Not a "real" classical piece but a fun take off of the melody to Beethoven's Fifth...
